The Department’s National Car Ownership Model produces forecasts of household car ownership. This does not provide a breakdown by traditional socio-economic grouping.
The model does not forecast the purchasing of new cars by households explicitly, but does provide changes in car stock and households by the number of cars owned.
The expected change in the number of households in Greater London by car ownership and total car stock from 2007-17 is as follows:
Number Percentage 0 car households 49,136 +4 1 car households 214,807 +15 2 car households 71,668 +14 3+ car households 32,607 +26 Total households 368,218 +12 Total cars 462,485 +16
